The Plain Path to Christian Perfection is a book written by Johannes Tauler, a German mystic and theologian from the 14th century. The book is a collection of sermons that Tauler delivered to his congregation in Strasbourg, France, and is considered one of the most important works of Christian mysticism.The sermons in the book are focused on the idea of Christian perfection, which Tauler defines as the process of becoming more like Christ through a life of prayer, meditation, and self-discipline. Tauler emphasizes the importance of humility, detachment from worldly things, and a deepening relationship with God in order to achieve this perfection.Throughout the book, Tauler draws on the teachings of the Bible and the writings of other Christian mystics, such as Meister Eckhart and John Ruysbroeck, to support his ideas. He also uses examples from his own life and the lives of his congregation to illustrate his points.Overall, The Plain Path to Christian Perfection is a profound and insightful work that continues to be read and studied by Christians around the world. Its message of humility, self-discipline, and devotion to God remains relevant and inspiring to this day.1772.
